Cupid’s Advice:

Taking that next step in your relationship and introducing your mate to your family can be intimidating. Here are some signs that it’s time to take the plunge:

1. It’s sure to be long-term: If you have made plans with your partner months away, it’s probably a good idea to introduce them to those who are important to you.

2. You’re past the lust stage: If that shiny glimmer you get at the beginning of a relationship has dissipated and you still want to be with your partner, consider taking the next step.

3. Comfort level: If you don’t feel comfortable around your new mate yet, then don’t introduce them to your family. That being said, if you’ve never felt more comfortable around someone, your family is sure to feel the same way.
